On Tuesday, September 27th, the first Men's Knitting Circle kicked off in Philadelphia. Eight male knitters attended, some I knew, some I did not. It went over well and we are meeting again the last Tuesday of October (the 25th). Plenty of creativity in the bunch.

I followed advice for various people and advertised it and talked it up in Philadelphia and various websites. MenWhoKnit and PhillyKnitters as two, the local yarn shoppes, the PGN, various stores.

Interesting note is that the owner of establishment told me that several women asked if they could attend, and he explained that it was for the guys and that they could start one on another evening. No disrespect to the ladies but the idea is for the fellas to have a place to sit, knit and enjoy each others company and share the male focused creative process.
